"

Zhao Zhao bit her lip and stopped talking.

"Zhao Zhao."

Ningxiang's tone softened again as she gently stroked her disciple's cheek: "You can go now. The things are with me; no one will make things difficult for you."

"I do not go."

Zhao Zhao said firmly, "Wherever Master is, I will be there."

"Then let's try again."

Ningxiang gazed in the direction of the Chen residence: "I wonder where Sun Xiangzong has gone now. Maybe he and the others are looking for the same thing. If all else fails, we can try contacting his senior brother Fang Qingyun first."

……

Chen Mansion.

Under the cover of night, Chen Sanshi lightly leaped across the rooftops of the city, carrying the iron lump. As he approached his own residence, he saw a woman dressed in black sitting on the roof, casting a cold gaze upon him in the moonlight.

"Hey, little sister, you're still up so late."

As Chen Sanshi spoke, he was about to jump directly into the courtyard.

"Brothel?"

The Empress lowered her eyes slightly, her tone exuding imperial power: "You have my elder sister at home, plus a senior sister, isn't that enough? You go to a brothel as soon as you get back?"

"Little sister, don't you have any male concubines?"

Chen Sanshi was too lazy to explain.

The empress closed her eyes and said nothing more.

After all that trouble...

Before long, the light of day was faint.

The Empress then saw Chen Sanshi, who hadn't even rested for an hour, riding out on horseback with his bow and arrows on his back.

"Luotian Mountain Range?"

……

"Ghost Vein Wood!"

As Chen Sanshi rode on Qianxun's back, he planned the purpose of his journey.

The ghost tree definitely needs to be cut down.

Then there are the exotic beasts; could we hunt as many as possible?

I aim to break through to the Profound Realm within this month.

Finally, try to go as far as possible into the depths, ensuring your own safety, and see what's inside. Even if you can't handle it, you'll at least have some idea of ​​what's inside.

"Go."

As they approached the mountain, Chen Sanshi patted the horse's back, signaling Qian to find a safe place to wait, and then he carried his large bow and stepped into the forest.

We climbed over one mountain after another.

Soon, he arrived at the miasma-filled Jiuchong Mountain.

This time, Chen Sanshi was better prepared. The miasma-avoiding pills were worth hundreds of taels of silver and would not be affected by anything. Then, relying on his memory, he easily found the Ghost Vein Wood.

In his hands, the Iron-Bladed Bow was drawn to its full extent, and then, a Ghostly Arrow, brimming with power, was suddenly unleashed.

"Roar!"

Inside the hollow of the big tree, the black bear, still fast asleep, let out a painful roar.

"He's still alive? He's so resilient?"

Chen Sanshi immediately fired another arrow.

"clang!"

This time, the sound of metal clashing rang out.

Immediately afterwards, a dark figure rushed out of the tree hole at incredible speed and arrived in front of him almost instantly.

This is a black bear.

A black bear dressed in a kasaya and holding a staff, resembling a stout martial artist, slammed down with immense force, its paws whistling through the air.

"Boom!"

The Five Tiger Soul-Severing Spears clashed with it.

Having just been hit by an arrow, the black bear was no match for the attack. Staggering backward, it was unable to retaliate once the opening was revealed. Blood gushed from its vital parts, and it collapsed to the ground with a mournful howl, then stopped breathing, leaving only its powerful bear heart still beating.

"Keng!"

Chen Sanshi drew his Zhenyue Sword again and began chopping down the tree. He quickly felled the Ghost Vein Wood and cut it into several sections. Just moving it out and finding a suitable place to put it took a long time.

Then he turned back and continued walking deeper into the area.

In the past, this strange black bear would have been enough.

But now, it's not quite enough.

Even with spiritual herbs and precious medicines, he still wanted to use exotic beasts to speed things up. Putting everything else aside, he needed even greater strength to prepare for the upcoming conquest of the grasslands.

Ten heavy mountains!

He went deeper once more.

Basically, every hundred steps or so, you would encounter a poisonous beast of varying strength, and you would start to avoid them to save time.

They walked a few hundred more steps.

The sounds of running and chasing could be heard from ahead.

In his eyes, there were several wisps of black mist and a wisp of pale blue mist.

There were four or five giant wolves covered in scales and with blood-red eyes chasing a strange beast. This beast was the size of a horse, but had eyes like a sheep, four horns on its head, a tail like a cow's tail, and made a sound like a howling dog.

Youyou!

Chen Sanshi had seen it in "Travels in Mountains and Rivers"; it was a rare and exotic beast whose meat was said to help cultivate one's inner energy.

Facing the attack of several vicious wolves, Youyou fought back while trying to escape, but these wolves knew how to cooperate, and two of them had already gone around to the front, completely blocking its way.

"Buzz!"

An arrow, imbued with powerful force, pierced the wolf's gaping maw with deadly accuracy, followed by a second, a third...

Less than two breaths.

All the wolves fell to the ground and died.

"Wang Wang!"

Youyou was rescued and cried out happily twice. Then she saw that the bow and arrow in the upright ape's hand had been aimed at her at some point.

"call out--"

An arrow pierced his skull, killing him instantly.

Chen Sanshi hid the body in a nearby tree hollow, then blocked it with a boulder and continued walking inside.

Eleven mountains!

The twelve-layered mountain range is located deep within the core area.

"Roar--"

A powerful aura, accompanied by a deafening roar, swept in.

"call out--"

Chen Sanshi's arrow was snapped in two after he fired it. Without wasting any more time, he grabbed his spear and charged forward. When the two collided, he found it difficult to defend himself and staggered back several steps, his Vajra body trembling incessantly.

Look closely.

This is a creature that looks like a large insect, but is covered with colorful bird feathers. It is over ten feet long, but its tail is longer than its body. This beast is called Zouwu, and it is of great help to martial artists in the Profound Elephant Realm.

Moreover, its strength is comparable to that of an ordinary martial artist at the Profound Realm.

This is also why ordinary martial artists dare not venture deep into the mountains; not only are there ferocious poisonous beasts everywhere, but they may also encounter exotic beasts comparable to top-tier martial artists at any time.

Chen Sanshi dared to come because he had the celestial treasure, the strange fire, as a backup.

However, it's best to avoid using it unless absolutely necessary.

After all, if you burn it down, there will be nothing left.

"Buzz, boom, boom!"

Just as he was pondering how to handle the situation, the ground beneath his feet began to tremble slightly.

"Roar!"

The Zouwu seemed to sense some kind of fear, roared, and then turned and ran.

Chen Sanshi looked eastward and saw a dark shadow appearing and disappearing among the mountains and forests. It was on the mountaintop a moment ago, then appeared on the mountainside a while later, and then appeared several miles away again.

wrong……

It's not that it moves fast, but that it's huge!

Giant snake!

This must be the giant snake that Sun Buqi and the others mentioned back then.

Even standing here, you can't clearly see just how huge it is.

However, the tremors on the ground were not caused by the giant snake.
